Date/Time and Place of Event
Originally produced by Les Blank Films in 1996.
Description
The setting is simple, but the stories, songs, and poems of Osceola Mays are remarkable indeed. In them, the past is recounted with a reverent intensity that expresses the deeply felt emotions of three generations of black Texans. The harsh realities of segregation and discrimination are juxtaposed with the importance of family and community life in these spirituals and poems learned by Osceola Mays from her mother, Azalene Douglas, and her grandmother, Laura Walker, who was ten years old when the Emancipation Proclamation was signed to end slavery. Together, the stories, songs and poems of Osceola Mays are a metaphor for the African-American struggle for survival and chronicle three generations of suffering and hope.
